Heiko, I give my VMs 16GB of space so the space should be ok. I also check the space (using df) throughout the process and I've always got about 4-5 GB free (even after an unpack). For the file length, do you think this could be a filesystem limitation? I'm using ext3 on all my partitions. I will post back again after I try the steps you outlined below and then I'll post back.
